Abstract

Tympanoplasty is one of the commonest surgical procedures done by ENT Surgeons. Though it has a long history of about six decades, various techniques have been advocated. Today most widely used technique is underlay. Overlay technique is reserved for total perforation. A modification of the underlay technique with anterior tunneling and placement of graft in anterior canal wall was tried and evaluated. Cases were selected from patients attending CMS-TH, Bharatpur. Seventy (70) cases were included and results were evaluated.
